I'm sure there's a story behind it.
I'm hoping we can weave some cool story into the naming of our Bear.

LSU's athletic trainer in the mid-1930s was named Mike Chambers, and he was the person most responsible for getting the school to adopt a live mascot. The tiger was named Mike in his honor.
Who was the person at Mississippi most responsible for changing from Col. Reb to Mr. Bearly?

The name for your new mascot should be P.C.
I'm sure with the new mascot, every Ole Miss fan and alum has a subscription to this.

While grizzly bears are generally
more aggressive by nature, black bears are actually very shy. Grizzly bears inhabit wideopen
areas with little or no cover. Therefore, if a threat is encountered, a grizzly’s only
option in some cases is to fight. Black bears, on the other hand, inhabit dense forests with
plenty of cover for hiding and avoiding threats, particularly people.

I think they should go with Ol' Ben. Old Ben was the name of the bear in William Faulkner's short story "The Bear". It is one of his most famous works. At least, this would give it a credible Ole Miss connection.

I prefer O'Bear

Yeah, that is gonna work real good. We caved into PC pussydom and got rid of Colonel Reb, and chose this gayassed bear. How's that for a narrative?

Wrong yall were given 3 crappy choices and choose the best of the three.
Should have gone with "Bandits" or something.
